Verse
E
I was six years old, my brother was ten
Bsus2/D#
One July day came running in,
C#m
seen a ferris wheel at the edge of town
A E
So, of course, we headed on down
E
Well it took us an hour to walk that far
Bsus2/D#
Carrying our fortune in a Mason jar
C#m
It was all pretty sad, a cheap county fair
A E
With a few old rides but there was ponies there
E
Well, the ponies stunk and the air was still
Bsus2/D#
In that dusty circle behind the ferris wheel
C#m A
This old guy smelling of smoke and rum
E
Swung me up and sat me down on one
E
Well I'd never rode a horse but I'd seen it done
Bsus2/D#
Cowboy movies made it look like fun
C#m
This old man whispered a few soft words
A
It was the best advice I've ever heard
[Chorus]
A E
He said "Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high
B E
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
A E
And live like you ain't afraid to die
B E
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"
[Verse 2]
E
I went up a kid with shaking hands
Bsus2/D#
And I came down a full grown man
C#m
It was like he'd cast some Voodoo spell
A E
Things were different for me now, I could tell
E
'Cos whenever troubles come wandering in
Bsus2/D#
His rhyme would pop in my head again
C#m
And somehow I rode through the needles and nails
A E
Brambles and thorns that life entails
[Chorus]
A E
He said "Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high
B E
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
A E
And live like you ain't afraid to die
B E
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"
[Verse 3]
E
Well I know some day farther down the road
Bsus2/D#
I'll come to the edge of the great unknown
C#m
There'll stand a black horse riderless
A E
And I wonder if I'm ready for this
E
So I'll saddle him up and he'll switch his tail
Bsus2/D#
And I'll tip my hat and bid fairwell
C#m
And lift my song into the air
A E
That I learned at that dusty fair
[Chorus]
A E
"Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high
B E
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
A E
And live like you ain't afraid to die
B C#m
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"
B E
Now don't be scared, just enjoy your ride
